Hey hey everyone, I just saw this open source modular environment. It's multi platform, including Linux.

New Music

by Will Godfrey

Over in KVR I used to be a regular contributor to the Music Cafe Contest, but that has really thinned out as other things got in the way. However after more than a year, I've finally managed to come up with something new again, and thought folks here might be interested in how I went about it. The track is named Pensive and is downloadable from Kara Moon here: http://www.kara-moon.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=8697.0;attac… Anyway, here goes. It's all Yoshimi, of course. I started out with an improvisation across two keyboards feeding into Rosegarden on tracks 1 and 2. From there, as well as recording MIDI, it passed on to Yoshimi. In the past, I would have run with a single keyboard with Yoshimi set up as a split keyboard, but that's much less comfortable and not improv friendly. With the melody and backing laid down, I then spent some time with minor edits, and a range of voicing selections, ending up with 'Solo' for the melody, and 'Multi-Rushes' for the backing. Multi-Rushes has a lot of 'movement' built in, but I went further with it, and MIDI learned both filter Q and filter CutOff to the MOD wheel, setting a block on it acting as normal. I then set the control range to run between 50% and 75% for a more subtle effect, and recorded this as MOD wheel to Rosegarden, operating the control to get the swells as and when I wanted them. For the bass, I then directed one of the keyboards to channel 3 and played along to the rest. I actually set this an octave high for the recording - it's much easer to be sure you're hitting the right notes! The patch is 'Simple Bass' After that, it was just a matter of dropping the bass an octave, and a few cleanups before making an audio recording. I hope you like the result. -- Will J Godfrey https://willgodfrey.bandcamp.com/ http://yoshimi.github.io Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

[music] Just one more time

by Jeanette C.

Hey hey, ... it's neither a Flower King's nor a Britney Spears cover. It's a cross between 90s rave and 10s Martin Garrix clubbing sound. With a healthy dose of Yoshimi for plucks, pluck layers and the diamond lead. Apart from that, it's more analogue electronics and some wavetable synthesis doing their thing. The vocoder and boom are created in Csound. https://youtu.be/E_Tz4X4_Ev4 and direct OGG: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3dw07w28wrd4a25/just_one_more_time.ogg Best wishes and enjoy, Jeanette -- * Website: http://juliencoder.de - for summer is a state of sound * Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMS4rfGrTwz8W7jhC1Jnv7g * Audiobombs: https://www.audiobombs.com/users/jeanette_c * GitHub: https://github.com/jeanette-c Ain't no way I'll be lonely <3 (Britney Spears)
